Recruiting studies
- NCT07481864Recruiting
Early mental exercise after shoulder tendon repair
This study tests if a gentle, early mental exercise program helps improve shoulder recovery after a specific type of rotator cuff repair. It might be a good fit if you had surgery on two front shoulder tendons and are otherwise healthy.
Istanbul, TurkeyAges 30–65 - NCT05959733Recruiting
Repairing large shoulder tears with BioBrace support
This study compares two surgical approaches for fixing large, two-tendon rotator cuff tears in the shoulder, using a product called BioBrace®. It may help you understand which approach leads to better recovery and shoulder function.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06735170RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Tuberoplasty vs. balloon spacer for irreparable rotator cuff tears
This trial tests two treatments for large, irreparable rotator cuff tears that cause pain: a surgical procedure called tuberoplasty (shaping the bone) versus placing a small balloon spacer under the shoulder bone. The goal is to see which offers better pain relief in people who have already had unsuccessful shoulder surgery and are 65 or older.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 65 years+ - NCT07632729Enrolling by invitation
Knowledge of Results Training for Shoulder Pain
This study tests whether giving you immediate feedback during shoulder exercises helps reduce rotator cuff-related shoulder pain. The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons in your shoulder; this trial focuses on people with impingement, bursitis, tendon inflammation, or small tears.
Ankara, SıhhıyeAges 18–35 - NCT06960343Recruiting
Shoulder repair with fat tissue for better healing
This trial tests whether adding a small amount of your own fat tissue to standard shoulder surgery helps the torn tendons heal better and last longer. It is for people with a full-thickness tear of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus tendons that needs arthroscopic repair.
Milan, ItalyAges 18 years+ - NCT07348016Recruiting
Platelet-rich plasma and steroid injection for shoulder surgery
This trial tests if adding a combination of platelet-rich plasma (a concentrate from your own blood that may help healing) and a steroid (to reduce inflammation) during arthroscopic surgery improves recovery for people with a torn rotator cuff and a stiff, stuck shoulder.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–70 - NCT07324343Recruiting
Education for shoulder pain: which patients benefit most?
This study tests whether patients with different types of shoulder pain respond better to learning about their condition through education alone. You will receive information and advice to help you manage your pain without injections or surgery.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT05677152RecruitingPhase 2
Anti-bone-drug test to help shoulder tendon healing after surgery
This Phase 2 trial studies whether an anti-osteoporosis medicine (zoledronic acid) can improve healing after surgery for a chronic rotator cuff tear in the shoulder. If you qualify, you would also follow a specific 4-week physical therapy plan using a shoulder support pad.
ViennaAges 50–70 - NCT06449534Recruiting
Does treatment setting affect shoulder pain and function?
This study tests whether the treatment setting (like a clinic or home) affects shoulder pain, function, and satisfaction in people with common shoulder problems. It could help doctors recommend the best place for therapy.
IstanbulAges 18–75 - NCT06693479Recruiting
Using a feedback device to help manage shoulder pain at work
This study tests whether a feedback device can help people with work-related shoulder pain manage their symptoms. You may qualify if you have shoulder pain from rotator cuff issues, arthritis, or rheumatoid arthritis and work full-time.

- How do I know if I qualify for a massive rotator cuff tear trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a massive rotator cuff tear trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
